    Meet the new boss, same as the old boss...


    A palace even Saddam would feel guilty building


    THE question puzzles and enrages a city: how is it that the Americans cannot keep the electricity running in Baghdad for more than a couple of hours a day, yet still manage to build themselves the biggest embassy on Earth?

    Irritation grows as residents deprived of air-conditioning and running water three years after the US-led invasion watch the massive US Embassy they call “George W’s palace” rising from the banks of the Tigris.

    In the pavement cafés, people moan that the structure is bigger than anything Saddam Hussein built. They are not impressed by the architects’ claims that the diplomatic outpost will be visible from space and cover an area that is larger than the Vatican city and big enough to accommodate four Millennium Domes. They are more interested in knowing whether the US State Department paid for the prime real estate or simply took it.

    While families in the capital suffer electricity cuts, queue all day to fuel their cars and wait for water pipes to be connected, the US mission due to open in June next year will have its own power and water plants to cater for a population the size of a small town.

    What damage did Saddam due to the USA?

    dubya/ head have manslaughtered 2400+ US military in a phony Repug war, lying to the the military, and everybody else, that Saddam was involved in the WTC 9/11.

    The still-unimpeached dubya/ head will soon have manslaughtered more US military than the still-uncaptured Osama murdered at the WTC.

    This US embassy-as-city proves to the Muslims everywhere that the USA intends to occupy Iraq indefinitely, rather than withdraw as soon as the Iraqis can run their own country.

    He didn't shoot any of them. 1. They signed up. 2. They fought in a war. 3. You're still a pussy croutons.
